·         1 tablespoon ginger, minced

·         1 teaspoon turmeric powder

·         1 teaspoon ground coriander

·         1/2 teaspoon cumin powder

4.    Add the diced tomatoes, coconut milk, and chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

5.    Add the potatoes to the pot and simmer for an additional 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

6.    Stir in the cilantro and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Tips for Making the Best Potato Chicken Curry:

·         Use fresh spices for the best flavor. If you don't have all of the spices called for in the recipe, you can substitute a curry powder blend. However, keep in mind that the flavor of the curry will be different.

·         Don't overcrowd the pot when cooking the chicken. If the pot is too crowded, the chicken will steam instead of brown.

·         Don't be afraid to adjust the heat of the curry to your liking. If you want a spicier curry, add more chili powder. If you want a milder curry, omit the chili powder or reduce the amount.

·         Serve the curry with rice or naan bread to absorb all of the delicious sauce.
